What is the hardest to acquire here? Excluding the lake Tarkoten or however u spell bichirs and excluding the plats I no it used to be teugs but now I don't no
 
If we are talking bout species, I would say PBB since Toyin hasn't had any in stock for some time.
 
I don't think anything is that hard to come by any more. If I had to vote I'd say WC teugelsi, but for the most part you just have to buy them when they're in season. It's usually all upper jaws - teugelsi in the fall (teugelsi come in spring), and all lower jaws - BV in spring (BV in fall).
 
If we count hybrids I believe they r the hardest to come by I have never once seen them for sell with the exception of a guy on here selling is 12" one a while back

CB hybrids aren't really wanted and besides they are usually mass bred. They tend to not look that nice when they get larger. Wild caught are more sought for.
